We RCer's are a strange lot. Why do so many ***** and moan abot the $58 for AMA. Look at all the organizations and memerships that soak people for over $50 that don't amount to anything. I have the belong to a professional organization for my job that soaks me $200.00 a year and all they do is meet in some hotel once a year and have a big dinner.
Why don't people complain about the IMAA? What do you get for that membership???? The right to be included in the 80" club?
I also belong to NAR and IPMS. I never hear any complaints from the members of these organizations. NAR is $75 a year for their insurance.
Many obviously belong to AMA just for the association. Look at all the indoor rubber flyers that the mag shows. Why would they really need insurance? I know, those little props can put an eye out or some lady could be traumatized for life after being struck by a plane weighing 8 oz. and traveling a .8 mph.
I spent $64 to play 1 round of golf with my son. Our AMA dues were $59 for a year...
